Ambiguously Gendered Child of "What is the Hivemind?"

Which part?
required feats or locations of feats?

all that matters is the feats not what is in what feat chain

Cosmopolitan was awesome! I used Cosmopolitan with my straight Enchantress in 3.0 to qualify for Virtuoso at level 5, losing not a single caster level in wizard but gaining all bard songs and more! I love the bard concept, but bard class is freaking terrible, so this was my compromise

I had no problems with the Bard class, it is the only one I took straight from 1-20th levels

The 3.0 Bard? Craziness I say!

The 3.0 Bard? Craziness I say!

and that reminds me, he had skill focus Perform

But, ya, Tag Trister and his trio (the other three PCs, they hated being called that). not only was he a 3.0 bard, but my weapon was the whip great character, great role playing, lots of fun

I never played a bard in my 15+ years of gaming and still find no desire to do so.

I take Toughness out of the default monsters because it isn't fair to the monster. Here are ones I've never seen taken except as prereqs for PrCs, DMing constantly from the inception of these feats to now (and this includes all my many custom NPCs):

Acrobatic, Agile, Animal Affinity, Armour Proficiency (light), Armour Proficiency (medium), Athletic, Deft Hands, Diligent, Endurance, Investigator, Nimble Fingers, Manyshot, Improved Bull Rush, Run, Self-Sufficient, Simple Weapon Proficinecy, Toughness, Track (except as Ranger bonus)

Hmm there are many feats I have never given NPCs as I tend to stop running at about 12th lvl so anything that is most useful after that doesn't get a lot of play. I think My list would be far to long, but I have used light armor (for psions) Endurance (for flavor), and Track (also for a druid)

There are a lot of dumb Exotics - reloadable X-bow, hand X-bow, Orc Double Axe, Dwarf Urgosh, Singham etc. I really tried to use a reloadable x-bow but the rapid reload came out on top, even for a crossbowman concept.

I played three in first edition (much harder to do back then), like 8 in second but I had to try out many of the cool kits in the Bard Handbook, and only one so far in the thirds edition days. I just don't play as much as I used to.

But...but...but...why do you need proficiency in the light armour with the psion? I play psions all the time, and I either bite the bullet and ignore the penalty (and maybe wear full plate and tower shield!), get mithral, or just use Inertial Armour
